Genesis

Every living being has a brain that emanates electromagnetic waves. These signals have been known to science since 1849, and when recorded by specialists, the results are called electroencephalograms (EEG). We have designed and produced professional electroencephalographs for over 25 years. Until recently, this was a rather conservative industry, fulfilling a narrow set of needs: diagnosis of brain abnormalities and diseases.

However, the last decade’s scientific advances allow us to speak of a neurotechnological revolution, owing to new progress in microelectronics, medicine, brain-mapping, programming and data analysis.

The expert consensus is that over the course of the next decade–with the help of computerized neurointerfaces like BrainBit–humans will be able to guide and shape their emotional state of mind. The global market in neurotechnologies is expected to reach $1 trillion by 2035, making neurointerfaces as widespread as computer keyboards and touch screen phones.

Technology. How does it work?

Technical Overview:

4 EEG Channels & 2 Reference Sensors

24 ADC Bits

250 Hz / Channel Sampling Rate

Noise Cancellation

12 Hour Active Battery

4.0 LE Bluetooth Connectivity

Device Overview:

BrainBit offers 4 EEG dry electrodes, 1 reference and 1 common sensor, achieving a higher spatial resolution on brain activity than any available device on the consumer market.

The system amplifies and digitizes analogue EEG signals collected by electrodes and transfers the physiological brain data of individuals via Bluetooth connectivity to a dedicated host computer, mobile device, or cloud backend.

In contrast with analogous devices, BrainBit follows the international 10 – 20 electrode placement protocol, with electrodes mounted inside the headband. Each electrode makes direct contact at the T3 and T4 temporal lobe regions as well as at the O1 and O2 occipital lobe regions. According to current research and international best practices, these specific regions provide the best access to high-fidelity signals for the four main types of brain waves. The BrainBit headband monitors electrical activity that is produced from the cortical regions of the brain and records the activity as raw EEG data. For user readability, this data is presented as wavelengths across four different frequency channels representing unique mental conditions.

Sleep Patterns

Neurofeedback is used to analyze sleep patterns and explore optimal sleeping conditions.

Meditation

Transportation Safety

Real-time neurofeedback can be used in understanding how the environmental factors such as time of day, road conditions and task at hand affect driving abilities.

eSports

Neurofeedback enables professional and amateur gamers to make incremental improvements in high performance training and competitive sessions.

Сreate Applications with BrainBit

No piece of hardware is optimal without software powering it. The BrainBit SDK contains a number of toolkits for software developers to utilize as they intertact with inbound raw EEG data. The SDK facilitates the process of performing complicated neural response interpretation and analysis into a simpler process in which neurofeedback is presented as simple indicators for interpretation.

Qualitative Indicators

The application displays the user brain state across a spectrum of categories including: Stress/Relaxation, Attention/Distraction, Happiness/Sadness, and Sleep/Awake.

Quantitative Indicators

The application displays the user brain state on a ranged scale of 0 to 100. This type of indicator provides a scaled approach for quantifying the magnitude of the human brain state.

Graphical Indicators

The application displays a user`s brain state based on color outputs, such as Red, Yellow, and Green. These graphical indicators supplement the qualitative and quantitative indicators demonstrating the magnitude of a brain state.
